Psychologist
High standards can be useful until mistakes feel intolerable, accomplishments never feel sufficient, or self-worth becomes tied to performance. Therapy can help clients recognize rigid patterns, respond differently to uncertainty and imperfection, and pursue meaningful goals without being governed by constant self-criticism.

Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
I work with folks to better understand the nuances of their perfectionism. Perfectionism can be particularly challenging because of the ways it can feel so beneficial to one's life at times. I try to help my clients understand the way their perfectionism helps them, hurts them, and why it might have felt necessary in the past, so they can feel more free in choosing how they want to interact with the world.

Psychologist, PsyD
Claudia Blackwell talks about how perfectionism is born out of shame. It's a quote that has stuck with me for years. Perfectionism causes us to feel like we are never good enough, directly attacking our self-worth. Supportive therapy can help us identify the attacks of perfectionism, learn the language of our inner critic, and forge a path forward with self-compassion and self-acceptance.

I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism by helping them understand the patterns of high self-criticism, fear of mistakes, and pressure to meet unrealistic standards. Perfectionism often leads to procrastination, burnout, and difficulty feeling satisfied, even when you are doing well. In therapy, we focus on challenging rigid thinking patterns, building flexibility, and developing a more balanced and compassionate approach to achievement. I use CBT and ACT-based strategies to address unhelpful beliefs, reduce the impact of self-critical thoughts, and support you in taking action without being held back by the need to be perfect.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Perfectionism can be exhausting. The pressure to do everything exactly right, meet impossibly high standards, or avoid making mistakes can leave you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite good enough. In therapy, I help clients understand the beliefs and fears that drive perfectionism, while developing a more flexible and compassionate relationship with themselves. Together, we work on challenging all-or-nothing thinking, reducing self-criticism, and learning to tolerate uncertainty and mistakes without feeling that everything is at risk. Treatment may also include practical strategies for managing procrastination, overthinking, and the difficulty of feeling satisfied with accomplishments. The goal is not to give up your ambition or high standards, but to help you pursue what matters to you without being controlled by the need to be perfect.
